FOREWORD 

While  the  incidence  of  crime  in  the  United  States  remains  at  intolerable 
levels,  the  law  enforcement  community  can  take  some  degree  of  pride  in  the  fact 
that  crime  has  decreased  for  three  consecutive  years.  Various  reasons  have  been 
given  for  the  decline,  many  of  which  encompass  and  demonstrate  the  efforts  of 
the  law  enforcement  community.  Increased  citizen  interest  and  cooperation  in 
crime  prevention  have  been  engendered  by  law  enforcement  agencies  either 
through  formal  programs  or  as  a  result  of  positive  community  relations.  The  fact 
that  the  prison  population  is  at  an  all-time  high,  thus  reducing  recidivism,  is 
directly  related  to  persistent  law  enforcement  and  investigative  initiatives. 
Improved  training  of  personnel  and  enhanced  management  resources  have  made 
law  enforcement  more  effective  and  efficient.  The  coming  of  the  information  age 
has  been  a  major  boon  to  many  agencies  in  improving  operations. 

We  must  now  meet  the  challenge  of  applying  electronic  and  computer 
technology  to  the  collection  and  analysis  of  crime  data.  Not  only  vitally 
important  to  the  local  community,  but  also  at  the  state  and  national  levels, 
reliable  data  on  crime  and  offenders  to  satisfy  twentieth-century  law 
enforcement  needs  are  critical  to  continued  success  in  the  fight  against  crime. 

In  an  attempt  to  identify  those  informational  needs,  the  Uniform  Crime 
Reporting  (UCR)  Program  has  undergone  almost  three  years  of  an  independent 
study  by  an  outside  consultant  group.  Encompassing  the  concerns  of  all  levels  of 
law  enforcement,  vast  and  exciting  recommendations  for  expanding  and 
enhancing  our  capabilities  in  crime-element  analysis  and  understanding  have 
surfaced  during  the  study.  UCR  advisory  committees  from  the  International 
Association  of  Chiefs  of  Police  and  the  National  Sheriffs'  Association  have 
enthusiastically  endorsed  the  concept  of  the  recommendations  and  other  groups 
have  had  an  opportunity  to  comment  individually.  We  at  the  Federal  level  are 
studying  the  long-term  economic  and  utility  potential  of  the  recommendations. 
When  firm  decisions  are  finally  agreed  upon,  we  in  the  law  enforcement 
community  must  be  able  to  look  well  beyond  this  decade  and  to  plan  for  the  next 
century  in  order  to  foster  this  valuable  informational  tool. 

Fewer  Crime  Index  offenses  were  reported  to  law  enforcement  last  year 
than  in  any  year  since  1978.  The  slight  increase  in  the  last  quarter  of  1984, 
however,  makes  us  wary  that  the  unprecedented  three-year  period  of  decline 
may  be  coming  to  an  end.  Although  we  have  certainly  made  strides  in 
combatting  lawlessness,  our  commitment  to  vigorous  enforcement  and  crime 
resistance  measures  must  not  falter  if  we  are  to  expect  continued  declines.

CRIME  FACTORS 

The  presence  of  crime  in  our  Nation  is  a  matter  of  serious  concern  not  only 
to  the  law  enforcement  profession,  but  to  society  at  large.  Historically,  the 
causes  and  origins  of  crime  have  been  the  subjects  of  investigation  by  many 
disciplines.  While  no  definitive  conclusions  have  yet  been  reached,  a  number  of 
factors  affecting  the  volume  and  type  of  crime  that  occurs  from  place  to  place 
have  been  delineated.  Some  of  these  are  as  follows: 

Population  density  and  size  of  locality  and  its  surrounding  area. 

Variations  in  composition  of  the  population,  particularly  age  structure. 

Stability  of  population  with  respect  to  residents'  mobility  and  transient 
factors. 

Economic  conditions,  including  job  availability. 

Cultural  conditions,  such  as  educational,  recreational,  and  religious 
characteristics. 

Climate. 

Effective  strength  of  law  enforcement  agencies. 

Administrative  and  investigative  emphases  of  law  enforcement. 

Policies  of  other  components  of  the  criminal  justice  system  (i.e., 
prosecutorial,  judicial,  correctional,  and  probational). 

Attitudes  of  citizenry  toward  crime. 
Crime  reporting  practices  of  citizenry. 
The  Uniform  Crime  Reports  give  a  nationwide  view  of  crime  based  on 
statistics  contributed  by  state  and  local  law  enforcement  agencies.  Population 
size  is  the  only  correlate  of  crime  utilized  in  this  publication.  While  the  other 
factors  listed  above  are  of  equal  concern,  no  attempt  is  made  to  relate  them  to 
the  data  presented.  The  reader  is,  therefore,  cautioned  against  comparing 
statistical  data  of  individual  reporting  units  from  cities,  counties,  states,  or 
colleges  and  universities  solely  on  the  basis  of  their  population  coverage  or 
student  enrollment.

SECTION  I 
SUMMARY  OF  THE  UNIFORM  CRIME  REPORTING 

PROGRAM 


For  over  50  years,  the  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  (UCR) 
Program  has  served  as  a  national  clearinghouse  for  crimes 
reported  to  city,  county,  and  state  law  enforcement  agencies. 
A  nationwide  cooperative  venture  of  nearly  16,000 
contributors  who  voluntarily  report  data  on  crimes  brought 
to  their  attention,  the  Program  produces  periodic 
assessments  of  the  nature  and  type  of  crime  in  the  Nation. 
Although  its  primary  objective  is  to  generate  a  reliable  set  of 
criminal  statistics  for  use  in  law  enforcement 
administration,  operation,  and  management,  the  Program's 
data  have  become  one  of  the  leading  social  indicators  in  the 
country.  The  American  public  looks  to  UCR  for 
information  on  fluctuations  in  the  level  of  crime,  while 
criminologists,  sociologists,  legislators,  municipal  planners, 
the  press,  and  other  students  of  criminal  justice  use  the 
statistics  for  varied  research  and  planning  purposes. 

Historical  Background 

In  the  1920s,  the  International  Association  of  Chiefs  of 
Police  (lACP)  recognized  a  need  for  national  crime 
statistics  and  formed  the  Committee  on  Uniform  Crime 
Records  to  develop  a  viable  system  of  uniform  police 
statistics.  After  studying  state  criminal  codes  and  making  an 
evaluation  of  the  recordkeeping  practices  in  use,  the 
Committee  in  1929  finalized  a  plan  for  crime  reporting 
which  became  the  foundation  of  the  UCR  Program. 

Since  offenses  known  to  law  enforcement  were  the  most 
readily  available  crime  information,  the  Committee  elected 
to  survey  local  agencies  to  obtain  data  on  crimes  brought  to 
their  attention.  Realizing  that  not  all  crimes  are  reported, 
the  Committee  evaluated  various  offenses  on  the  basis  of 
their  seriousness,  frequency  of  occurrence,  pervasiveness  in 
all  geographic  parts  of  the  country,  and  likelihood  of  being 
reported  to  law  enforcement.  Using  those  criteria,  seven 
offenses  were  chosen  to  serve  as  an  Index  for  gauging 
fluctuations  in  the  overall  volume  and  rate  of  crime.  Known 
jointly  as  the  Crime  Index,  these  offenses  included  the 
violent  crimes  of  murder  and  nonnegligent  manslaughter, 
forcible  rape,  robbery,  and  aggravated  assault  and  the 
property  crimes  of  burglary,  larceny-theft,  and  motor 
vehicle  theft.  By  congressional  mandate,  arson  was  added  as 
the  eighth  Index  offense  in  1979. 

During  the  early  planning  of  the  Program,  it  was 
recognized  that  the  differences  among  criminal  codes 
precluded  a  mere  aggregation  of  state  statistics  to  arrive  at  a 
national  total.  Further,  because  of  the  variances  in 
punishment  for  the  same  offenses  in  different  state  codes,  no 
distinction  between  felony  and  misdemeanor  crimes  was 
possible.  To  avoid  these  problems  and  provide  nationwide 


uniformity  in  crime  reporting,  standardized  offense 
definitions  were  formulated.  Today,  as  at  the  Program's 
outset,  law  enforcement  agencies  submit  data  in  accordance 
with  the  UCR  standard  definitions  without  regard  for  local 
statutes.  The  definitions  used  by  the  Program  are  set  forth 
in  Appendix  II  of  this  publication. 

In  January  1930,  400  cities  representing  20  million 
inhabitants  in  43  states  began  participating  in  the  UCR 
Program.  In  that  same  year.  Congress  enacted  legislation 
under  Title  28,  Section  534,  of  the  United  States  Code 
authorizing  the  Attorney  General  to  gather  crime 
information.  The  Attorney  General,  in  turn,  designated  the 
FBI  to  serve  as  the  national  clearinghouse  for  the  data 
collected.  Since  that  time,  data  based  on  uniform 
classifications  and  procedures  for  reporting  have  been 
obtained  from  the  Nation's  law  enforcement  agencies. 

Providing  vital  links  between  local  law  enforcement  and 
the  FBI  are  the  lACP  and  the  National  Sheriffs' 
Association  (NSA).  The  lACP's  Committee  on  Uniform 
Crime  Records,  as  it  has  since  the  Program  began, 
represents  the  thousands  of  police  departments  nationwide. 
The  NSA's  Committee  on  Uniform  Crime  Reporting, 
established  in  June  1966,  encourages  sheriffs  throughout  the 
country  to  fully  participate  in  the  Program.  Both 
committees  serve  in  advisory  capacities  concerning  the  UCR 
Program's  operation. 

Committees  on  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  within  state 
law  enforcement  associations  are  also  active  in  promoting 
interest  in  the  UCR  Program.  These  committees  foster 
widespread  and  more  intelligent  use  of  uniform  crime 
statistics  and  lend  assistance  to  contributors  when  the  need 
arises. 

Methods  of  Data  Collection 

The  information  compiled  by  UCR  contributors  is 
forwarded  to  the  FBI  either  directly  from  the  local  law 
enforcement  agency  or  through  a  state-level  UCR  Program. 
Agencies  submitting  directly  to  the  FBI  are  provided 
continuing  guidance  and  support  on  an  individual  basis. 

State-level  UCR  Programs  are  very  effective 
intermediaries  between  the  FBI  and  its  local  contributors. 
Many  of  the  41  state  Programs  have  mandatory  reporting 
requirements  and  collect  data  beyond  the  national  UCR 
scope  to  address  crime  problems  germane  to  their  particular 
locales.  In  most  cases,  these  agencies  are  also  able  to  provide 
more  direct  and  frequent  service  to  participating  law 
enforcement  agencies,  to  make  information  more  readily 
available  for  use  at  the  state  level,  and  to  contribute  to  more 
streamlined  operations  at  the  national  level. 


With  the  development  of  a  state  UCR  Program,  the  FBI 
ceases  direct  collection  of  data  from  individual  law 
enforcement  agencies  within  the  state.  Instead,  information 
from  local  agencies  is  forwarded  to  the  national  Program 
through  the  state  data  collection  agency. 

The  conditions  under  which  these  systems  are  developed 
ensure  consistency  and  comparability  in  the  data  submitted 
to  the  national  Program,  as  well  as  provide  for  regular  and 
timely  reporting  of  national  crime  data.  These  conditions 
are:  (1)  The  state  Program  must  conform  to  national 
Uniform  Crime  Reports'  standards,  definitions,  and 
information  requirements.  The  states  are  not,  of  course, 
prohibited  from  collecting  other  statistical  data  beyond  the 
national  requirements.  (2)  The  state  criminal  justice  agency 
must  have  a  proven,  effective,  statewide  Program  and  have 
instituted  acceptable  quality  control  procedures.  (3) 
Coverage  within  the  state  by  a  state  agency  must  be,  at  least, 
equal  to  that  attained  by  the  national  Uniform  Crime 
Reports.  (4)  The  state  agency  must  have  adequate  field  staff 
assigned  to  conduct  audits  and  to  assist  contributing 
agencies  in  record  practices  and  crime  reporting  procedures. 
(5)  The  state  agency  must  furnish  to  the  FBI  all  of  the 
detailed  data  regularly  collected  by  the  FBI  in  the  form  of 
duplicate  returns,  computer  printouts,  and/or  magnetic 
tapes.  (6)  The  state  agency  must  have  the  proven  capability 
(tested  over  a  period  of  time)  to  supply  all  the  statistical 
data  required  in  time  to  meet  national  Uniform  Crime 
Reports'  publication  deadlines. 

To  fulfill  its  responsibilities  in  connection  with  the  UCR 
Program,  the  FBI  continues  to  edit  and  review  individual 
agency  reports  for  both  completeness  and  quality;  has  direct 
contact  with  individual  contributors  within  the  state  when 
necessary  in  connection  with  crime  reporting  matters, 
coordinating  such  contact  with  the  state  agency;  and  upon 
request,  conducts  training  programs  within  the  state  on  law 
enforcement  records  and  crime  reporting  procedures. 
Should  circumstances  develop  whereby  the  state  agency 
does  not  comply  with  the  aforementioned  requirements,  the 
national  Program  may  reinstitute  a  direct  collection  of 
Uniform  Crime  Reports  from  law  enforcement  agencies 
within  the  state. 

Reporting  Procedures 

Law  enforcement  agencies  across  the  country  report 
monthly  to  the  UCR  Program.  From  records  of  all  reports 
of  crime  received  from  victims,  officers  who  discover 
infractions,  or  other  sources,  the  agencies  tabulate  the 
number  of  Crime  Index  or  Part  I  offenses  brought  to  their 
attention.  Specifically,  the  crimes  reported  to  the  FBI  are 
murder  and  nonnegligent  manslaughter,  forcible  rape, 
robbery,  aggravated  assault,  burglary,  larceny-theft,  motor 
vehicle  theft,  and  arson. 

Whenever  complaints  of  crime  are  determined  through 
investigation  to  be  unfounded  or  false,  they  are  eliminated 


from  an  agency's  count.  The  number  of  "actual  offenses 
known"  is  reported  to  the  FBI  regardless  of  whether  anyone 
is  arrested  for  the  crime,  stolen  property  is  recovered,  or 
prosecution  is  undertaken. 

Another  integral  part  of  the  monthly  submission  is  the 
total  number  of  actual  Crime  Index  offenses  cleared.  Crimes 
are  "cleared"  in  one  of  two  ways:  (1)  at  least  one  person  is 
arrested,  charged,  and  turned  over  to  the  court  for 
prosecution;  or  (2)  by  exceptional  means  when  some 
element  beyond  police  control  precludes  the  arrest  of  an 
offender.  Law  enforcement  agencies  also  report  the  number 
of  Index  crime  clearances  which  involve  only  offenders 
under  the  age  of  18;  the  value  of  property  stolen  and 
recovered  in  connection  with  the  offenses;  and  detailed 
information  pertaining  to  criminal  homicide  and  arson. 

In  addition  to  its  primary  collection  on  Crime  Index  (Fart 
I)  offenses,  the  UCR  Program  solicits  monthly  data  on 
persons  arrested  for  all  crimes  except  traffic  violations.  The 
age,  sex,  race,  and  ethnic  origin  of  arrestees  are  reported  for 
both  Part  I  and  Part  II  offenses  by  crime  category.  Part  II 
offenses  include  all  crimes  not  classified  as  Part  I. 

Various  data  on  law  enforcement  officers  killed  or 
assaulted  are  collected  on  a  monthly  basis.  The  number  of 
full-time  sworn  and  civilian  personnel  are  reported 
annually,  as  of  October  31. 

Editing  Procedures 

Each  report  submitted  to  the  UCR  Program  is 
thoroughly  examined  for  arithmetical  accuracy  and  for 
deviations  which  may  indicate  errors.  To  identify  any 
unusual  fluctuations  in  an  agency's  crime  counts,  monthly 
reports  are  compared  with  previous  submissions  by  the 
agency  and  with  those  for  similar  agencies.  Large  variations 
in  crime  levels  may  indicate  modified  records  procedures, 
incomplete  reporting,  or  changes  in  the  jurisdiction's 
geopolitical  structure. 

Data  reliability  is  a  high  priority  of  the  Program  and 
noted  deviations  or  arithmetical  adjustments  are  brought  to 
the  attention  of  the  state  UCR  Program  or  the  submitting 
agency  through  correspondence.  A  standard  procedure  of 
the  FBI  is  to  study  the  monthly  reports  and  to  evaluate 
periodic  trends  prepared  for  individual  reporting  units.  Any 
significant  increase  or  decrease  is  made  the  subject  of  a 
special  inquiry.  When  it  is  found  that  changes  in  crime 
reporting  procedures  or  annexations  are  influencing  the 
level  of  crime,  the  figures  for  specific  crime  categories,  or  if 
necessary,  totals  are  excluded  from  trend  tabulations. 

To  assist  contributors  in  complying  with  UCR  standards, 
the  national  Program  provides  training  seminars  and 
instructional  materials  in  crime  reporting  procedures. 
Throughout  the  country,  liaison  with  state  Programs  and 
law  enforcement  personnel  is  maintained,  and  training 
sessions  are  held  to  explain  the  purpose  of  the  Program,  the 
rules  of  uniform  classification  and  scoring,  and  the  methods 


of  assembling  the  information  for  reporting.  When  an 
individual  agency  has  specific  problems  in  compiling  its 
crime  statistics  and  remedial  efforts  are  unsuccessful,  FBI 
Headquarters'  personnel  may  visit  the  contributor  to  aid  in 
resolving  the  difficulties. 

The  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  Handbook,  which  details 
procedures  for  classifying  and  scoring  offenses,  is  supplied 
to  all  contributors  as  the  basic  resource  document  for 
preparing  reports.  Also,  since  a  good  records  system  is 
essential  for  accurate  crime  reporting,  the  FBI  furnishes  the 
Manual  of  Law  Enforcement  Records,  a  guide  in  the 
establishment  of  a  sound  law  enforcement  records  system. 

To  enhance  communication  among  Program  participants, 
the  UCR  "Newsletter"  and  State  UCR  Program  "Bulletin" 
are  utilized  to  address  Program  policy,  as  well  as  present 
information    and    instructional    material.    These 
communications  are  produced  as  needed. 

The  final  responsibility  for  data  submissions  rests  with  the 
individual  contributing  law  enforcement  agency.  Although 
the  Program  makes  every  effort  through  its  editing 
procedures,  training  practices,  and  correspondence  to  assure 
the  validity  of  the  data  it  receives,  the  statistics'  accuracy 
depends  primarily  on  the  adherence  of  each  contributor  to 
the  established  standards  of  reporting.  Deviations  from 
these  established  standards  which  cannot  be  resolved  by  the 
national  UCR  Program  may  be  brought  to  the  attention  of 
the  Committee  on  Uniform  Crime  Records  of  the  lACP  or 
the  Committee  on  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  of  the  NSA. 

Reporting  Area 

The  presentation  of  statistics  by  reporting  area  facilitates 
analyzing  local  crime  counts  in  conjunction  with  those  for 
areas  of  similar  geographic  makeup.  Geographically,  the 
United  States  is  divisible  by  regions,  divisions,  and  states.  As 
discussed  in  Appendix  III,  further  breakdowns  rely  on 
population  figures  and  proximity  to  metropolitan  areas. 

A  Metropolitan  Statistical  Area  (MSA)  is  an  integrated 
economic  and  social  unit  with  a  recognized  large  population 
nucleus.  Each  has  a  central  city  of  at  least  50,000  population 
or  an  urbanized  area  of  at  least  50,000  with  a  total 
population  of  at  least  100,000.  Contiguous  counties  which 
meet  specified  criteria  of  metropolitan  character  and 
integration,  designated  suburban  counties  in  UCR,  are 
included.  Due  to  changes  in  the  geographic  compositions  of 
MSAs,  no  year-to-year  comparisons  of  data  for  those  areas 
should  be  attempted. 

Rural  counties  and  "other  cities,"  most  of  which  are 
incorporated,  are  outside  MSAs.  As  a  general  rule,  sheriffs, 
county  police,  and  state  police  report  crimes  committed 
within  the  limits  of  the  counties  but  outside  cities,  while 
local  police  report  crimes  committed  within  the  city  limits. 

Certain  tables  within  this  publication  present  statistics 
relative  to  "suburban"  areas.  A  suburban  area  consists  of 


cities  with  less  than  50,000  inhabitants  together  with 
counties  which  are  within  an  MSA.  In  this  context,  the 
central  city  is,  of  course,  excluded.  The  concept  of  suburban 
area  is  especially  important  in  a  study  of  this  nature  because 
of  the  particular  crime  conditions  which  exist  in  the 
communities  surrounding  the  Nation's  largest  cities. 

During  1984,  law  enforcement  agencies  active  in  the  UCR 
Program  represented  approximately  227  million 
United  States  inhabitants,  or  96  percent  of  the  total 
population  as  established  by  the  Bureau  of  the  Census.  The 
coverage  amounted  to  98  percent  of  the  United  States 
population  living  in  MSAs,  94  percent  of  the  population  in 
"other  cities,"  and  90  percent  of  the  rural  population. 

Although  most  law  enforcement  agencies  submit  crime 
reports  to  the  UCR  Program,  data  are  sometimes  not 
received  for  complete  annual  periods.  To  be  included  in  this 
publication's  Tables  6,  7,  8,  and  9,  showing  specific 
jurisdictional  statistics,  figures  for  all  12  months  of  the 
current  year  must  have  been  received  at  the  FBI  prior  to 
established  publication  deadlines.  Other  tabular 
presentations  are  aggregated  as  set  forth  in  Appendix  I. 
Unless  consisting  of  estimates  for  the  total  population,  each 
table  in  this  publication  shows  the  number  of  agencies 
reporting  and  the  extent  of  population  coverage. 

Population  Data 

Current  year  population  figures  for  the  Nation,  states, 
geographic  regions,  and  divisions  are  Bureau  of  the  Census 
provisional  estimates  as  of  July  1,  1984.  Using  these  figures 
along  with  1982  Bureau  of  the  Census  city  and  county 
estimates,  the  populations  of  individual  jurisdictions  were 
extrapolated  (see  Appendix  III).  The  estimated 
United  States  population  increase  in  1984  was 
approximately  1  percent  over  the  1983  estimate. 

Offense  Estimation 

Tables  1  through  5  of  this  publication  contain  statistics 
for  the  entire  United  States.  Because  not  all  law  enforcement 
agencies  provide  data  for  complete  reporting  periods, 
estimated  crime  counts  are  included  in  these  presentations. 
Offense  estimation  occurs  within  each  of  three  areas: 
Metropolitan  Statistical  Areas,  "other  cities,"  and  rural 
counties.  Using  the  known  crime  experiences  of  similar 
areas  within  a  state,  the  estimates  are  computed  by  assigning 
the  same  proportional  crime  volumes  to  nonreporting 
agencies. 

Estimates  shown  in  Tables  1  and  4  have  been  adjusted 
due  to  changes  in  reporting  practices  for  Chicago,  Illinois. 
Since,  in  1983,  that  city's  prior  procedures  were  determined 
not  to  be  in  accordance  with  established  national  UCR 
standards,  adjustments  through  estimation  were  made  for 
earlier  years.  Crime  Index  figures  for  Chicago  were 
deducted  from  each  year's  United  States  total  and  revised 
figures  were  established  as  if  no  reports  were  received. 
Those  crime  volumes  were  then  reincorporated  to  establish 


new  national  estimates.  As  the  Chicago  Pohce  Department 
changed  its  internal  procedures  to  meet  UCR  guidelines 
during  1983,  1984  data  were,  again,  not  comparable  with 
previous  submissions.  To  overcome  any  influence  Chicago's 
figures  may  have  had  on  1984  national  trends,  the 
estimation  process  outlined  above  was  reapplied.  Pre- 1984 
annual  totals  in  this  year's  publication  may  not,  therefore, 
be  consistent  with  those  in  previous  editions. 

Crime  Trends 

Showing  fluctuations  from  year  to  year,  trend  statistics 
offer  the  data  user  an  added  perspective  from  which  to  study 
crime.  Percent  change  tabulations  in  this  publication  are 
computed  only  for  reporting  units  which  have  provided 
comparable  data  for  the  periods  under  consideration. 
Exclusions  from  trend  computations  are  made  when  figures 
from  a  reporting  agency  are  not  received  for  comparable 
timeframes  or  when  it  is  ascertained  that  unusual 
fluctuations  are  due  to  such  variables  as  improved  records 
procedures,  armexations,  etc. 

Care  should  be  exercised  in  any  direct  comparisons 
between  data  in  this  publication  and  those  in  prior  issues  of 
Crime  in  the  United  States.  Valid  percent  changes  for  2,  5, 
and  10  years  are  presented  in  this  book's  tabular  portions. 

Recent  Developments 

Phase  II  of  the  comprehensive  study  of  UCR  ended  in 
early  1985  with  the  production  of  a  draft  "Blueprint  for  the 
Future  of  the  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  Program."  Major 
proposals  in  the  draft  report  included  recommendations  that 
the  Program  convert  to  unit  record  reporting  for  offenses 
and  arrests,  that  the  Program's  data  collection  be  two  tiered, 
and    that    structured    quality    assurance    procedures    be 


instituted.  Concerning  the  two-tiered  collection,  level  one, 
representing  most  of  the  Nation's  law  enforcement  agencies, 
would  report  unit  records  on  data  elements  slightly 
expanded  from  today's  collection.  Level  two,  consisting  of 
the  Nation's  largest  law  enforcement  agencies  and  a  random 
sampling  of  the  smaller  agencies,  would  ref)ort  extensive 
data  on  all  crimes  coming  to  their  attention,  as  well  as 
various  detailed  information  on  arrests  and  agency 
characteristics. 

The  study's  Steering  Committee  reviewed  the  draft  report 
at    a    March,    1985,    meeting    and    made    various 
recommendations  for  revision.  The  Committee's  members, 
however,  endorsed  the  report's  concepts. 

The  eighth  National  UCR  Conference  was  held  April  8- 
12,  1985,  at  the  FBI  Academy,  Quantico,  Virginia. 
Conference  attendees,  which  included  representatives  from 
the  state  UCR  Programs,  the  lACP,  and  the  NSA, 
discussed  the  draft  "Blueprint"  with  staff  members  from  the 
national  UCR  Program,  Bureau  of  Justice  Statistics,  and 
Abt  Associates  Inc.,  the  private  research  firm  conducting 
the  study.  Various  procedural  and  methodological  concerns 
of  the  attendees  were  addressed,  and  various 
recommendations  for  consideration  in  the  final  repwrt  were 
set  forth.  The  overall  concept  for  the  revised  Program  was 
unanimously  approved  by  all  attendees,  and  the  joint 
lACP/NSA  Committee  on  UCR  issued  a  resolution 
enthusiastically  endorsing  the  "Blueprint." 

The  final  report  addressing  or  incorporating 
recommendations  of  the  Steering  Committee  and  National 
Conference  attendees  should  be  released  for  public  comment 
in  the  summer  of  1985.

DEFINITION 


Murder  and  nonnegligent  manslaughter,  as  defined  in  the  Uniform  Crime  Reporting 
Program,  is  the  willful  (nonnegligent)  killing  of  one  human  being  by  another. 

The  classification  of  this  offense,  as  for  all  other  Crime  Index  offenses,  is  based  solely 
on  police  investigation  as  opposed  to  the  determination  of  a  court,  medical  examiner, 
coroner,  jury,  or  other  judicial  body.  Not  included  in  the  count  for  this  offense 
classification  are  deaths  caused  by  neghgence,  suicide,  or  accident;  justifiable 
homicides;  and  attempts  to  murder  or  assaults  to  murder,  which  are  scored  as 
aggravated  assaults.

percent;  the  Midwestern  States,  19  percent;  and  the 
Northeastern  States,  17  percent.

Trend 

There  were  3  percent  fewer  murders  reported  nationwide 
in  1984  than  in  1983.  For  the  same  2-year  period,  the 
murder  volume  dropped  5  percent  in  cities  and  2  percent  in 
rural  counties,  while  the  number  in  suburban  counties  rose  3 
percent.  Upward  trends  were  registered  for  only  two 
population  groupings.  Cities  with  populations  from  100,000 
to  249,999  recorded  a  5-percent  increase,  and  those  with 
from  500,000  to  999,999  inhabitants  recorded  a  2-percent 
rise. 

Three  of  the  four  geographic  regions  registered  declines  in 
the  number  of  murders  during  1984.  The  decreases  were  7 
percent  in  both  the  Midwestern  States  and  Northeastern 
States  and  2  percent  in  the  Southern  States.  In  the  Western 
States,  the  only  region  showing  an  increase,  the  volume  of 
murders  rose  1  percent. 

The  accompanying  chart  reveals  a  decrease  of  19  percent 
nationally  in  the  murder  counts  from   1980  to   1984.

Rate 

The  1984  national  murder  rate  of  8  per  100,000 
inhabitants  was  5  percent  lower  than  in  1983.  When  the 
number  of  murder  victims  was  related  to  the  populations  on 
a  regional  basis,  rate  decreases  were  seen  in  all  four  regions, 
1983  versus  1984.  The  Southern  States  averaged  10  murders 
per  100,000  people,  4  percent  lower  than  in  1983,  while  the 
Western  States'  rate  of  8  per  100,000  declined  1  percent. 
Each  registering  murder  rates  of  6  per  100,000,  the 
Northeastern  States'  rate  was  down  7  percent  and  the 
Midwestern  States',  down  6  percent. 

Collectively,  the  MSAs  reported  a  murder  rate  of  9 
victims  per  100,000  inhabitants;  the  rural  counties  and  cities 
outside  metropolitan  areas  each  registered  murder  rates  of  5 
per  100,000. 

Nature 

Contributing  agencies  provided  supplemental  information 
for  16,689  of  the  estimated  18,692  murders  in  1984. 
Submitted  monthly,  the  data  consist  of  the  age,  sex,  race, 
and  ethnic  origin  of  both  victims  and  offenders;  the  types  of 
weapons  used;  the  relationships  of  victims  to  the  offenders; 
and  the  circumstances  surrounding  the  murders. 

Based  on  these  supplemental  data,  approximately  75 
percent  of  the  murder  victims  in  1984  were  males.  Ninety- 
five  percent  were  persons  1 5  years  of  age  or  older,  with  46 
percent  aged  20  through  34  years.  Considering  victims  for 
whom  race  was  known,  an  average  of  57  of  every  100  were 
white,  41  were  black,  and  the  remainder  were  persons  of 
other  races.  Nineteen  percent  of  the  victims  for  whom 
ethnicity  was  reported  were  Hispanic. 

An  examination  of  incidents  involving  one  victim  and  one 
offender  showed  that  in  1984,  94  percent  of  the  black 
murder  victims  were  slain  by  black  offenders,  and  89 
percent  of  the  white  murder  victims  were  killed  by  white 
offenders.  Likewise,  males  were  most  often  slain  by  males 
(83  percent  in  single  victim/single  offender  situations). 
These  same  data  showed,  however,  that  9  of  every  10  female 
victims  were  murdered  by  males.

Supporting  the  philosophy  that  murder  is  primarily  a 
societal  problem  over  which  law  enforcement  has  little  or  no 
control  is  the  fact  that  57  percent  of  the  murders  committed 
in  1984  were  perpetrated  by  relatives  or  persons  acquainted 
with  the  victims.  Eighteen  percent  of  all  killings  involved 
family  relationships,  48  percent  of  which  involved  spouse 
killing  spouse. 


Arguments  resulted  in  40  percent  of  all  murders,  while  1 8 
percent  occurred  as  a  result  of  felonious  activities  such  as 
robbery,  arson,  etc.  Another  3  percent  were  suspected  to 
have  been  the  result  of  some  felonious  activity.  The  table  on 
the  following  page  shows  murder  circumstances/motives  for 
the  past  5  years.

Clearances 

In  1984,  the  highest  Crime  Index  clearance  rate 
nationwide  was  for  murder,  74  percent.  City  agencies  also 
cleared  74  percent  of  murders,  with  cities  under  10,000  in 
population  reporting  the  most  successful  clearance  rate,  82 
percent.  Seventy-seven  percent  of  murders  in  rural  counties 
and  72  percent  of  those  in  suburban  counties  were  cleared. 

Regionally,  the  murder  clearance  rate  was  highest  in  the 
Southern    States,    76    percent.    Following    were    the 


Northeastern  States  with  74  percent,  the  Midwestern  States 
with  72  percent,  and  the  Western  States  with  71  percent. 

Persons  under  18  years  of  age  were  involved  in  murder 
less  often  than  in  any  other  offense  in  1984.  They  accounted 
for  5  percent  of  the  willful  killings  cleared  by  law 
enforcement  nationally,  as  well  as  in  cities  and  in  suburban 
counties.  Four  percent  of  the  rural  county  clearances 
involved  only  persons  in  this  young-age  group. 

Persons  Arrested 

Overall  murder  arrests  decreased  5  percent  in  1984  from 
the  1983  volume.  Arrests  of  persons  under  age  18  dropped  6 
percent,  while  those  of  persons  aged  18  and  over  fell  5 
percent.  During  the  same  2-year  period,  both  male  and 
female  arrests  were  down,  5  and  3  percent,  respectively. 

Among  all  1984  murder  arrestees,  41  percent  were  under 
25  years  of  age,  with  7  percent  of  the  total  being  17  or 
younger.  The  18-  to  24-year  age  group  showed  the  greatest 
involvement  in  this  offense,  accounting  for  34  percent  of  the 
total  1984  murder  arrests. 

Whites  comprised  54  percent  of  the  total  arrestees  for 
murder  in  1984.  Blacks  made  up  45  percent,  and  the 
remainder  were  of  other  races.  Sixteen  pyercent  of  the 
arrestees  were  of  Hispanic  ethnicity. 

Long-term  murder  arrest  trends  indicate  total  arrests  fell 
15  percent  from  1975  and  7  percent  from  1980.

comprised  7  percent  of  the  violent  crimes  and  1  percent  of 
the  total  Crime  Index.  Geographically,  the  South,  the  region 
with  the  largest  population,  recorded  36  percent  of  the  1984 
forcible  rape  volume.  The  Western  States  accounted  for  24 
percent,  the  Midwestern  States  for  23  percent,  and  the 
Northeastern  States  for  the  remainder. 


8  percent  in  the  Northeast,  7  percent  in  the  Midwest,  and  1

Forcible  rapes  reported  to  law  enforcement  agencies 
nationwide  increased  7  percent  in  1984  from  the  1983 
experience.  Comparisons  for  5-  and  10-year  periods  show 
the  1984  national  forcible  rape  figure  up  1  percent  above  the 
1980  level  and  50  percent  above  the  1975  volume. 

City  and  suburban  county  law  enforcement  agencies  each 
recorded  an  increase  of  6  percent  in  their  forcible  rape 
volumes,  while  rural  counties  registered  a  rise  of  15  percent. 
By  city  population  grouping,  those  having  500,000  to 
999,999  inhabitants  reported  the  greatest  increase,  10 
percent. 

Trends  for  the  geographic  areas  showed  increases  in  all 
regions.  As  compared  to  1983  volumes,  the  number  of 
forcible  rapes  reported  in  1984  rose  1 1  percent  in  the  South,

Rate 

By  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  definition,  the  victims  of 
forcible  rape  are  always  female.  An  estimated  69  of  every 
100,000  females  in  the  Nation  were  reported  rape  victims  in 
1984.  Although  3  percent  lower  than  in  1980,  the  1984  rate 
was  5  percent  higher  than  the  1983  figure  when  based  on  the 
United  States  female  population. 

In  MSAs,  the  1984  female  forcible  rape  rate  was  79 
victims  per  100,000  females;  in  cities  outside  metropolitan 
areas,  it  was  40  per  100,000  females;  and  in  rural  counties,  it 
was  34  per  100,000  females. 

The  geographic  regions  recorded  rates  per  100,000 
females  ranging  from  87  in  the  West  to  53  in  the  Northeast. 
The  Southern  States  showed  a  female  forcible  rape  rate  of 
73,  and  the  Midwestern  States,  64. 

Nature 

Rapes  by  force  comprised  79  percent  of  the  offenses 
reported  in  this  category  during  1984;  attempts  or  assaults 
to  commit  forcible  rape  made  up  the  remainder.  Rapes  by 
force  rose  8  percent  over  the  1983  experience,  while 
attempts  to  commit  rape  increased  1  percent. 

Forcible  rape,  a  violent  crime  against  the  person,  is  still 
recognized  as  one  of  the  most  underreported  of  all  Index 
crimes.  Victims'  fear  of  their  assailants  and  their 
embarassment  over  the  incidents  are  just  two  factors  which 
can  affect  their  decisions  to  contact  law  enforcement. 

Clearances 

In  1984,  the  Nation's  law  enforcement  agencies  reported 
54  percent  of  the  known  forcible  rapes  cleared  by  arrest  or 
exceptional  means.  Rural  county  agencies  recorded  a  63- 
percent  clearance  rate;  those  in  the  suburban  counties,  a  56- 
percent  clearance  rate;  and  city  agencies,  a  52-percent  rate. 
Regionally,  clearances  for  this  offense  ranged  from  58 
percent    in    the    Southern    States    to    48    percent    in    the

Midwestern  States.  The  Northeastern  States'  clearance  rate      rose  7  percent  in  the  Nation's  cities,   10  percent  in  the

were  down  8  percent  in  the  Northeast,  3  percent  in  the 
South  and  Midwest,  and  1  percent  in  the  West.  City  law

Rate 

The  1984  national  robbery  rate  of  205  per  100,000 
inhabitants  was  down  5  percent  from  the  1983  rate.  With 
958  robberies  per  100,000  people,  the  highest  rate  was 
experienced  in  cities  with  populations  over  1  million.  MSAs 
recorded  a  rate  of  262  robberies  per  100,000  inhabitants, 
and  in  cities  outside  metropolitan  areas,  the  rate  was  44.  The 
lowest  incidence  was  in  the  rural  areas  where  the  rate  was 
15  per  100,000  people. 

Robbery  occurred  most  frequently  in  the  Northeastern 
States  where  the  rate  was  289  per  100,000  inhabitants.  The 
rate  per  100,000  inhabitants  for  the  Western  States  was  233; 
for  the  Midwestern  States,  1 70;  and  for  the  Southern  States, 
163. 


Nature 

Accounting  for  a  total  estimated  loss  of  $295  million  in 
1984,  the  value  of  property  stolen  due  to  robberies  averaged 
$609  per  incident.  The  impact  of  this  violent  crime  on  its 
victims  cannot  be  measured  in  terms  of  monetary  loss  alone. 
While  the  object  of  a  robbery  is  to  obtain  money  or 
property,  the  crime  always  involves  force  or  threat  of  force, 
and  many  victims  suffer  serious  personal  injury. 

As  in  previous  years,  robberies  on  streets  or  highways 
accounted  for  more  than  half  of  the  offenses  in  this 
category.  The  average  dollar  loss  for  this  type  of  robbery 
was  $430.  Although  accounting  for  only  1  percent  of  all 
robberies,  those  of  banks  registered  the  highest  average  loss, 
$2,690  per  incident.

Clearances 

During  1984,  26  percent  of  the  robbery  offenses  reported 
to  law  enforcement  were  cleared.  Rural  law  enforcement 
agencies  registered  the  highest  robbery  clearance  rate,  40 
percent.  Suburban  county  agencies  cleared  30  percent  and 
those  in  cities,  25  percent.  Clearance  percentages  for 
robbery  in  the  Nation's  regions  showed  the  Southern  States 
with  28  percent,  the  Western  and  Northeastern  States  each 
with  26  percent,  and  the  Midwestern  States  with  22  percent. 

Nationally,  as  well  as  for  city  law  enforcement  agencies, 
persons  under  the  age  of  1 8  were  the  offenders  in  1 3  percent 
of  all  1984  robbery  clearances.  This  age  group  accounted  for 
12  percent  of  the  suburban  county  clearances  and  7  percent 
of  the  rural  county  clearances. 


Persons  Arrested 

When  the  total  number  of  arrests  for  robbery  during  1984 
was  compared  with  that  of  1983,  a  decrease  of  6  percent  was 
observed  for  the  Nation  and  for  suburban  county  law 
enforcement  agencies.  Declines  were  also  recorded  in  the 
cities  and  rural  counties,  5  and   19  percent,  respectively. 

During  1984,  67  percent  of  the  persons  arrested  for 
robbery  were  under  25  years  of  age,  and  93  percent  were 
male.  Sixty-one  percent  of  those  arrested  were  black,  37 
percent  were  white,  and  the  remainder  were  of  other  races. 
Fourteen  percent  of  the  robbery  arrestees  were  Hispanic. 

When  compared  with  the  1980  total,  robbery  arrests 
showed  a  decrease  of  5  percent  in  1984.  Adult  arrests  were 
up  2  percent  during  this  period,  while  those  of  persons 
under  age  18  decreased  19  percent.

AGGRAVATED  ASSAULT 
DEFINITION 


Aggravated  assault  is  an  unlawful  attack  by  one  person  upon  another  for  the  purpose 
of  inflicting  severe  or  aggravated  bodily  injury.  This  type  of  assault  is  usually 
accompanied  by  the  use  of  a  weapon  or  by  means  likely  to  produce  death  or  great 
bodily  harm.  Attempts  are  included  since  it  is  not  necessary  that  an  injury  result  when 
a  gun,  knife,  or  other  weapon  is  used  which  could  and  probably  would  result  in  serious 
personal  injury  if  the  crime  were  successfully  completed.

Western  States  with  23  percent,  the  Midwestern  States  with 
21  percent,  and  the  Northeastern  States  with  19  percent. 


City  law  enforcement  agencies  recorded  a  rise  of  5  percent 
in  their  aggravated  assault  counts  from  1983  to  1984.  Those 
in  rural  counties  and  suburban  counties  experienced  4-  and 
3-percent  increases,  respectively. 

The  5-year  trend,  1984  over  1980,  showed  an  increase  of  2 
percent  in  the  aggravated  assault  volume.

Trend 

Nationwide,  aggravated  assault  increased  5  percent  in 
volume  during  1984  as  compared  to  1983.  For  this  2-year 
period,  the  trend  in  all  geographic  regions  showed  increases. 
The  total  in  the  Midwestern  States  rose  6  percent;  in  the 
Southern  States,  5  percent;  and  in  both  the  Northeastern 
States  and  Western  States,  4  percent. 


Rate 

During  1984,  290  victims  of  aggravated  assault  were 
reported  for  every  100,000  United  States  inhabitants.  In 
metropolitan  areas,  the  aggravated  assault  rate  was  327  per 
100,000  inhabitants;  in  cities  outside  metropolitan  areas,  it 
was  243;  and  in  rural  counties,  it  was  124. 

Nationwide,  the  rate  for  aggravated  assault  increased  4 
percent  from  1983  but  was  down  3  percent  from  1980. 

Nature 

Thirty-one  percent  of  the  aggravated  assaults  reported  in 
1984  were  committed  with  blunt  objects  or  other  dangerous 
weapons.  Twenty-five  percent  were  committed  with 
personal  weapons  such  as  hands,  fists,  and  feet;  23  percent 
with  knives  or  other  cutting  instruments;  and  21  percent 
with  firearms. 

From  1983  to  1984,  aggravated  assaults  committed  with 
firearms  rose  4  percent,  while  those  assaults  with  knives  or 
other  cutting  instruments  and  personal  weapons  increased  2 
percent.  Assaults  where  blunt  objects  or  other  dangerous 
weapons  were  used  showed  a  rise  of  9  percent.

Clearances 

Collectively,  all  law  enforcement  agencies  nationwide 
cleared  61  percent  of  the  reported  cases  of  aggravated 
assault  during  1984.  The  rural  counties  and  cities  with 
populations  under  10,000  recorded  the  highest  clearance 
rates,  69  percent  each.  Suburban  county  law  enforcement 
agencies  cleared  64  percent. 

Regionally,  clearance  percentages  for  aggravated  assault 
were  64  percent  in  the  Southern  States,  61  percent  in  both 


the  Western  and  Northeastern  States,  and  55  percent  in  the 
Midwestern  States. 

Nine  percent  of  the  clearances  reported  nationally  and  by 
city  and  suburban  county  agencies  were  of  offenses  in  which 
only  persons  under  age  18  were  identified  as  the  assailants. 
Persons  under  1 8  years  of  age  accounted  for  6  percent  of  the 
rural  county  aggravated  assault  clearances. 

Persons  Arrested 

The  estimated  300,860  persons  arrested  for  aggravated 
assault  in  1984  represented  61  percent  of  all  arrestees  for 
violent  crimes.  Total  arrests  for  this  offense  were  up  2 
percent  from  the  1983  total  as  were  those  of  males.  Female 
arrests  increased  4  percent  for  the  same  2-year  period. 

A  comparison  of  1980  and  1984  figures  showed  total 
arrests  for  aggravated  assault  up  8  percent.  Arrests  of 
persons  18  years  of  age  and  over  rose  11  percent,  while  the 
number  of  arrests  of  persons  under  age  18  decreased  8 
percent. 

In  1984,  arrests  of  males  for  this  offense  outnumbered 
those  of  females  by  6  to  1.  Whites  comprised  61  percent  of 
the  arrestees  for  aggravated  assault;  blacks,  38  percent;  and 
all  other  races,  the  remainder.  Eighty-six  percent  of  the 
arrestees  were  non-Hispanic.

BURGLARY 
DEFINITION 


The  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  Program  defines  burglary  as  the  unlawful  entry  of  a 
structure  to  commit  a  felony  or  theft.  The  use  of  force  to  gain  entry  is  not  required  to 
classify  an  offense  as  burglary.  Burglary  in  this  Program  is  categorized  into  three 
subclassifications:  forcible  entry,  unlawful  entry  where  no  force  is  used,  and  attempted 
forcible  entry.

Volume 

The  nearly  3  million  burglary  offenses  in  1984  accounted 
for  1  of  every  4  Crime  Index  offenses  reported  for  the  year. 
The  Southern  States,  the  most  populous  region,  recorded  35 
percent  of  all  reported  burglaries.  The  Western  States 
accounted  for  26  percent,  the  Midwestern  States  for  22 
percent,  and  the  Northeastern  States  for  18  percent. 

Burglary  occurred  most  frequently  in  December  of  1984.

Trend 

National,  city,  and  rural  county  burglary  counts  dropped 
5  percent  in  1984  from  1983  totals.  In  the  suburban 
counties,  burglary  decreased  3  percent.  Five-year  trends 
showed  the  1984  total  volume  21  percent  lower  than  in 
1980. 

Burglary  decreases  were  recorded  in  all  regions,  1983 
versus  1984.  The  declines  were  1 1  percent  in  the  Northeast, 
7  percent  in  the  Midwest,  2  percent  in  the  South,  and  1 
percent  in  the  West. 

Rate 

Down  6  percent  from  1983  and  25  percent  lower  than  in 
1980,  the  1984  burglary  rate  was  1,264  per  100,000 
inhabitants  nationwide.  Metropolitan  areas  registered  a  rate 
of  1,424  for  every  100,000  in  population,  while  the  cities 
outside  metropolitan  areas  recorded  a  rate  of  967  per

Geographically,  the  burglary  rate  was  1,629  in  the 
Western  States,  1,298  in  the  Southern  States,  1,104  in  the 
Midwestern  States,  and  1,056  in  the  Northeastern  States. 
Declining  in  all  regions,  1983  versus  1984,  the  rate  was 
down  1 1  percent  in  the  Northeastern  Region,  7  percent  in 
the  Midwestern  Region,  4  percent  in  the  Southern  Region, 
and  3  percent  in  the  Western  Region. 

Nature 

Two  of  every  3  burglaries  in  1984  were  residential  in 
nature.  The  overall  residential  burglary  volume  dropped  4 
percent  from  1983,  with  nighttime  offenses  down  7  percent 
and  those  committed  during  the  day  down  1  percent. 

The  number  of  nonresidential  burglaries  recorded  was  6 
percent  lower  in  1984  than  in  1983.  Those  occurring  at 
night  fell  9  percent  in  volume,  and  those  during  the  day 
decreased  less  than  1  percent. 

Seventy  percent  of  the  burglaries  in  1984  involved  forcible 
entry,  2 1  percent  were  unlawful  entries  (without  force),  and 
the  remainder  were  forcible  entry  attempts. 

Burglary  victims  suffered  losses  estimated  at  $2.7  billion 
in  1984,  and  the  average  dollar  loss  per  burglary  was  $900. 
The  average  loss  for  residential  offenses  was  $927,  while  for 
nonresidential  property,  it  was  $846.  » 

Clearances 

The  1984  national  burglary  clearance  rate  was  14  percent. 
By  region,  the  Southern  States  showed  a  16-percent 
clearance  rate;  the  Northeastern  and  Western  States,  14 
percent  each;  and  the  Midwestern  States,   12  percent. 

Law  enforcement  agencies  in  rural  counties  cleared  18 
percent  of  the  burglaries  brought  to  their  attention.  Those  in 
the  suburban  counties  recorded  a  clearance  rate  of  16 
percent,  and  agencies  in  cities  obtained  clearances  in  14 
percent  of  these  crimes. 

Adults  were  involved  in  78  percent  of  all  burglary 
offenses  cleared,  and  only  young  people  under  18  years  of 
age  were  offenders  in  the  remaining  22  percent.  Similar  to

22  percent  of  the  burglary  clearances  in  cities  and  in  rural

involvement  in  burglary  was  recorded  in  the  Nation's 
smallest  cities  (under  10,000  population)  where  young 
persons  under  1 8  years  of  age  comprised  29  percent  of  the 
clearances. 

Persons  Arrested 

In  the  UCR  Program,  several  persons  may  be  arrested  in 
connection  with  the  clearance  of  one  crime,  or  the  arrest  of 
one  individual  may  clear  numerous  offenses.  The  latter  is 
often  true  in  cases  of  burglary  for  which  an  estimated 
433,600  arrests  were  made  in  1984.  Arrest  trends  for  1983 


and  1984  show  an  8-percent  decrease  in  total  burglary 
arrests,  with  those  of  persons  under  18  years  of  age  down  10 
percent  and  those  of  adults  down  7  percent.  In  1984, 
burglary  arrests  dropped  9  percent  in  the  rural  counties,  8 
percent  in  the  Nation's  cities,  and  6  percent  in  the  suburban 
counties. 

Ninety-three  percent  of  the  burglary  arrestees  during 
1984  were  males  and  74  percent  were  under  25  years  of  age. 
Of  the  total  burglary  arrestees,  whites  accounted  for  70 
percent,  blacks  for  29  percent,  and  other  races  for  the 
remainder.  Eighty-seven  percent  of  the  persons  arrested  for 
burglary  were  non-Hispanic.

LARCENY-THEFT 


DEFINITION 


Larceny-theft  is  the  unlawful  taking,  carrying,  leading,  or  riding  away  of  property 
from  the  possession  or  constructive  possession  of  another.  It  includes  crimes  such  as 
shoplifting,  pocket-picking,  purse-snatching,  thefts  from  motor  vehicles,  thefts  of  motor 
vehicle  parts  and  accessories,  bicycle  thefts,  etc.,  in  which  no  use  of  force,  violence,  or 
fraud  occurs.  In  the  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  Program,  this  crime  category  does  not 
include  embezzlement,  "con"  games,  forgery,  and  worthless  checks.  Motor  vehicle  theft 
is  also  excluded  from  this  category  inasmuch  as  it  is  a  separate  Crime  Index  offense.

Nationally,  the  larceny-theft  rate  was  2,791  per  100,000

12  percent  lower  than  in  1980. 

The  1984  larceny-theft  rate  was  3,121  per  100,000 
inhabitants  in  MSAs;  2,988  per  100,000  population  in  cities 
outside  metropolitan  areas;  and  905  per  100,000  in  the  rural 
counties. 

Geographically,  the  Western  States  reported  the  highest 
1984  rate  with  3,477  larceny  offenses  per  100,000 
inhabitants.  The  Southern  States  had  a  rate  of  2,729;  the 
Midwestern  States,  2,683;  and  the  Northeastern  States, 
2,376.  All  regions  recorded  decreases  in  1984  from  the  1983 
level.  Rates  for  both  the  Northeastern  and  Midwestern 
Regions  dropped  4  percent,  while  the  Western  and  Southern 
Regions  showed  declines  of  3  and  1  percent,  respectively. 

Nature 

For  each  reported  larceny-theft  offense  in  1984,  the 
average  value  of  property  stolen  was  $376.  When  the 
average  value  was  applied  to  the  estimated  number  of 
larceny-thefts,  the  loss  to  victims  nationally  was  $2.5  billion 
for  the  year.  This  estimated  dollar  loss  is  considered 
conservative  since  many  offenses  in  the  larceny  category, 
particularly  if  the  value  of  the  stolen  goods  is  small,  never 
come  to  law  enforcement  attention.  Losses  in  29  percent  of 
the  thefts  reported  to  law  enforcement  ranged  from  $50  to 
$200,  while  in  34  percent,  they  were  over  $200. 

In  1984,  the  average  value  of  goods  and  property  reported 
stolen  from  motor  vehicles  was  $399,  while  thefts  of  motor 
vehicle  accessories  resulted  in  average  losses  of  S273  per 
incident.  Thefts  by  pocket-picking  averaged  $239  and  by 
purse-snatching,  $181.  The  average  value  loss  for  bicycle 
theft  was  $162  per  incident;  for  thefts  from  coin-operated 
machines,  $1 14;  and  for  miscellaneous  thefts  from  buildings, 
$556.

'Because  of  rounding,  percentages  may  not  add  to  totals. 

As  in  prior  years,  a  large  portion  of  the  larcenies  (37 
percent)  was  comprised  of  thefts  of  motor  vehicle  parts, 
accessories,  and  contents.  Other  major  types  of  thefts  which 
contributed  to  the  high  volume  of  these  crimes  were  those 
from  buildings,  16  percent;  shoplifting,  13  percent;  and 
bicycles,  8  percent.  The  remainder  were  distributed  among 
pocket-picking,  purse-snatching,  thefts  from  coin-operated 
machines,  and  miscellaneous  types  of  larceny-thefts.  The 
accompanying  table  presents  the  distribution  of  larceny- 
theft  by  type  and  geographic  region. 

Qearances 

Twenty  percent  of  the  reported  larceny-thefts  nationwide 
and  in  cities  were  cleared  in  1984.  Law  enforcement 
agencies  in  cities  from  25,000  to  49,999  in  population 
reported  the  highest  clearance  rate,  24  percent,  while  those 
in  suburban  and  rural  counties  recorded  18-  and  17-percent 
rates,  respectively. 


Geographically,  clearance  percentages  of  21  percent  in 
the  Western  Region,  20  percent  in  both  the  Southern  and 
the  Midwestern  Regions,  and  18  percent  in  the 
Northeastern  Region  were  recorded. 

Twenty-four  percent  of  the  national  clearances  for 
larceny-theft  involved  persons  under  18  years  of  age 
exclusively.  Twenty-five  percent  of  the  clearances  in  cities, 
22  percent  of  those  in  suburban  counties,  and  17  percent  of 
those  in  rural  counties  were  accounted  for  by  persons  of  this 
young  age  group. 

Persons  Arrested 

The  1984  larceny-theft  arrest  volume  was  2  percent  lower 
than  in  1983.  Arrests  of  males  were  also  down  2  percent, 
while  those  of  females  decreased  1  percent.  During  the  same 
2-year  period,  adult  arrests  dropped  3  percent,  but  arrests  of 
persons  under  age  18  rose  1  percent.  For  the  5-year  period, 
1980-1984,  the  number  of  persons  arrested  for  this  offense 
showed  a  5-percent  increase.  Although  juvenile  arrests  were 
down  9  percent,  those  of  adults  were  up  14  percent. 

Comprising  the  largest  portion  of  the  total  Crime  Index 
offenses  reported,  larceny-theft  also  accounted  for  55 
percent  of  the  total  arrests  for  Index  crimes  in  1984.  Forty- 
eight  percent  of  these  arrests  were  of  persons  under  2 1  years 
of  age,  and  34  percent  of  the  arrestees  were  under  18. 
Females,  who  were  arrested  for  this  offense  more  often  than 
for  any  other  in  1984,  comprised  30  percent  of  all  larceny- 
theft  arrestees. 

Whites  accounted  for  68  percent  of  the  total  larceny-theft 
arrests  and  blacks  for  30  percent.  All  other  races  made  up 
the  remainder.  Eighty-nine  percent  of  the  arrestees  were 
persons  of  non-Hispanic  ethnicity.

Trend 

The  number  of  motor  vehicle  thefts  reported  in  1984  rose 

2  percent  nationwide  from  the  1983  experience.  Increases  of 

3  percent  in  the  Nation's  cities,  2  percent  in  suburban 
counties,  and  1  percent  in  the  rural  counties  were  also 
recorded. 

Regionally,  the  volume  was  up  8  percent  in  the 
Midwestern  States,  5  percent  in  the  Southern  States,  and  2 
percent  in  the  Western  States.  Only  the  Northeast  registered 
a  decline,  5  percent. 

The  accompanying  chart  shows  that  the  number  of  motor 
vehicle  thefts  in  1984  decreased  9  percent  from  the  1980 
volume.  The  volume  was,  however,  2  percent  higher  than  in 
1975.

Rate 

Up  1  percent  from  the  1983  figure,  the  motor  vehicle  theft 
rate  in  1984  was  437  per  100,000  inhabitants  nationwide. 
Compared  to  the  1975  and  1980  experiences,  the  rate 
decreased  8  and  13  percent,  respectively. 

The  motor  vehicle  theft  rate  was  533  per  100,000  MSA 
inhabitants.  Cities  outside  metropolitan  areas  (other  cities) 
had  a  motor  vehicle  theft  rate  of  183,  and  the  rural  counties 
recorded  the  lowest  rate,  98.  As  in  previous  years,  the 
highest  rates  were  in  the  Nation's  most  heavily  populated 
municipalities,  indicating  that  this  offense  is  primarily  a 
large-city  problem. 

Geographically,  the  motor  vehicle  theft  rates  were  547 
per  100,000  inhabitants  in  the  Northeastern  States;  489  in 
the  Western  States;  430  in  the  Midwestern  States;  and  344  in 
the  Southern  States.  Among  the  regions,  only  the  Northeast 
recorded  a  decline,  5  percent.  Rate  increases  were  8  percent 
in  the  Midwest,  4  percent  in  the  South,  and  less  than  1 
percent  in  the  West. 

An  estimated  average  of  1  of  every  169  registered  motor 
vehicles  was  stolen  nationwide  in  1984.  Geographically,  this 
rate  was  greatest  in  the  Northeastern  Region  where  1  of 
every  111  motor  vehicles  registered  was  stolen.  The  other 
three  regions  reported  lesser  rates  —  1  per  164  in  the 
Western  States,  1  per  177  in  the  Midwestern  States,  and  1 
per  222  in  the  Southern  States. 

Nature 

The  1984  estimated  total  national  loss  due  to  motor 
vehicle  theft  was  $4.6  billion.  The  average  value  per  vehicle 
stolen  was  $4,418  at  the  time  of  theft. 

Seventy-six  percent  of  all  motor  vehicles  reported  stolen 
during  the  year  were  automobiles,  14  percent  were  trucks  or 
buses,  and  the  remainder  were  other  types.

Qearances 

Nationwide  in  1984,  law  enforcement  agencies  cleared  15 
percent  of  the  motor  vehicle  thefts  reported  in  their  locales. 
Those  in  cities  cleared  14  percent;  those  in  the  suburban 
counties  cleared  21  percent;  and  rural  agencies  cleared  34 
percent.  By  geographic  location,  clearance  percentages  for 
motor  vehicle  theft  ranged  from  9  percent  in  the 
Northeastern  States  to  20  percent  in  the  Southern  States.  In 
the  Midwestern  and  Western  States,  the  clearance  rates 
were  14  and  17  percent,  respectively. 


Persons  in  the  under  18  age  group  accounted  for  18 
percent  of  the  motor  vehicle  thefts  cleared  nationwide,  in 
cities,  and  in  suburban  counties.  In  the  rural  counties,  they 
comprised  19  percent. 

Persons  Arrested 

The  younger  segment  of  the  Nation's  population 
accounted  for  the  largest  proportion  of  motor  vehicle  theft 
arrests.  Fifty-six  percent  of  all  persons  arrested  during  1984 
were  under  21  years  of  age,  and  those  under  age  18 
accounted  for  36  percent  of  the  total. 

While  1984  motor  vehicle  theft  arrests  showed  a  16- 
percent  decline  since  1980,  they  increased  3  percent  from 
1983.  During  the  same  2-year  period,  arrests  of  persons 
under  18  years  of  age  for  motor  vehicle  theft  were  up  5 
percent,  and  adult  arrests  rose  2  percent. 

In  1984,  91  percent  of  motor  vehicle  theft  arrestees  were 
males.  Sixty-eight  percent  of  all  persons  arrested  for  this 
offense  were  white,  30  percent  were  black,  and  the 
remainder  were  of  other  races.  Fourteen  percent  of  the 
arrestees  were  Hispanic.

ARSON 
DEnNITION 


Arson  is  defined  by  the  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  Program  as  any  willful  or 
malicious  burning  or  attempt  to  burn,  with  or  without  intent  to  defraud,  a  dwelling 
house,  public  building,  motor  vehicle  or  aircraft,  personal  property  of  another,  etc. 

Only  fires  determined  through  investigation  to  have  been  willfully  or  maliciously  set 
are  classified  as  arsons.  Fires  of  suspicious  or  unknown  origins  are  excluded. 


36 


Background 

Following  a  congressional  mandate  in  1979,  the  UCR 
Program  initiated  its  collection  of  data  on  arson  as  a  Part  I 
Crime  Index  offense.  Recognizing  that  arson  has 
characteristics  not  common  with  other  Index  crimes,  the 
data  collection  procedures  were  developed  on  the  basis  of 
input  from  the  fire  service  and  law  enforcement 
communities,  as  well  as  the  insurance  industry.  Specific 
guidelines  and  requirements  were  established  for  reporting 
arson  offenses. 

UnUke  other  Crime  Index  offenses,  the  occurrence  of 
arson  is  not  always  immediately  established  by  officials  at 
the  scene.  Since  the  entire  concept  of  the  Crime  Index  is 
based  on  actual  offenses  known  to  law  enforcement,  it  was 
decided  that  only  fires  determined  through  investigation  to 
have  been  willfully  or  maliciously  set,  including  attempts, 
were  to  be  reported  as  arsons.  Suspicious  fires  or  those  of 
unknown  origin  were  to  be  excluded  until  definitely 
determined  to  be  arsons. 

Prior  to  the  addition  of  arson  as  an  Index  crime, 
contributing  law  enforcement  agencies  were  instructed  that 
in  multiple-offense  situations  only  one  crime,  based  on  an 
established  hierarchy  of  offenses,  was  to  be  reported.  Since  it 
was  recognized  that  arson  frequently  occurs  in  conjunction 
with  other  Index  crimes  and  that  valuable  information 
could  be  lost  if  this  procedure  was  followed,  the  hierarchy 
policy  was  modified  for  arson  reporting  only.  Therefore,  it 
was  determined  that  all  arsons  should  be  reported  regardless 
of  their  commission  in  conjunction  with  another  Crime 
Index  offense. 

Volume 

A  total  of  101,836  arson  offenses  were  reported  by  12,371 
law  enforcement  agencies  representing  approximately  89 
percent  of  the  Nation's  population  during  1984.  Data  in  the 
tables  on  the  accompanying  pages  are  based  on  figures 
received  from  12,150  law  enforcement  agencies  providing 
complete,  detailed  information,  including  type  of  structure 
and  estimated  monetary  value  of  property  damaged. 
Although  the  population  coverage  is  insufficient  to  estimate 
the  total  1984  United  States  arson  experience,  additional 
reported  data  on  arson  offenses  and  trends  are  shown  in 
Tables  6  through  13  and  on  arson  clearances  in  Tables  20 
through  23. 

Trend 

Based  on  reports  from  law  enforcement  agencies 
providing  6  or  more  months  of  arson  data  for  1983  and 
1984,  arson  trends  are  shown  in  Tables  10  through  13. 
During  this  2-year  period,  a  2-percent  increase  in  reported 
arson  occurred  nationwide.  With  respect  to  city  size,  the 
trend  ranged  from  a  5-percent  decline  in  cities  with  10,000 
to  24,999  inhabitants  to  a  9-percent  increase  in  cities  with 
populations  over  1  million.  The  Nation's  suburban  counties 


recorded  a  4-percent  drop,  and  the  rural  counties  registered 
an  8-percent  decline. 

By  property  type,  those  arsons  in  which  structures  were 
the  targets  decreased  1  percent  nationally.  Arsons  of  mobile 
property  were  up  2  percent,  and  those  of  all  other  property 
rose  6  percent. 

Caution  is  recommended  when  viewing  arson  trend 
information.  The  percent  change  figures  may  have  been 
influenced  by  improved  arson  reporting  procedures  during 
the  collection's  relatively  limited  timespan.  It  is  expected 
that  year-to-year  statistical  comparability  will  improve  as 
collection  continues. 

Rate 

The  accompanying  table  presents  arson  rates  per  100,000 
inhabitants.  Population  coverage  for  arson  data  is  lower 
than  for  the  other  Crime  Index  offenses;  therefore,  these 
data  were  tabulated  independently.  Based  only  on  figures 
from  law  enforcement  agencies  supplying  12  months  of 
statistics  for  all  Index  crimes,  including  arson,  the  rates 
ranged  from  134  per  100,000  inhabitants  in  cities  with 
populations  over  1  million  to  20  per  100,000  rural  county 
inhabitants.  The  rates  for  suburban  counties  and  all  cities 
were  40  and  61  per  100,000  inhabitants,  respectively. 
Overall,  the  1984  national  arson  rate  was  53  per  100,000 
population.

The  national  arson  clearance  rate  during  1984  was  17 
percent.  Rural  county  agencies  showed  the  highest  rate, 
clearing  25  percent  of  the  arson  offenses  brought  to  their 
attention.  Suburban  counties  cleared  21  percent;  and  city 
law  enforcement  agencies,   15  percent. 

Geographically,  the  Southern  States  reported  a  clearance 
rate  of  22  percent;  the  Western  States,  16  percent;  the 
Northeastern  States,  15  percent;  and  the  Midwestern  States, 
13  percent. 

During  the  year,  35  percent  of  all  arson  clearances 
involved  only  young  people  under  age  18.  This  offense 
showed  a  higher  percentage  of  juvenile  involvement  than 
any  other  Index  crime.  Persons  under  18  accounted  for  35 
percent  of  the  structural  arson  clearances,  20  percent  of 
those  for  mobile  property,  and  56  percent  for  arsons  of  all 
other  property. 

By  population  grouping,  juveniles  were  the  offenders  in 
37  percent  of  the  city  arson  clearances,  35  percent  of  those 
in  suburban  counties,  and  21  percent  of  those  in  the  rural 
counties.  Among  the  city  groupings,  the  greatest  juvenile 
involvement  was  seen  in  cities  with  populations  from  25,000 
to  49.999,  47  percent. 

The  tables  on  the  following  page  show  clearance  data  only 
for  those  12,150  law  enforcement  agencies  which  were  able 
to  furnish  breakdowns  by  type  for  the  structural  and  mobile 
classifications.  As  can  be  seen,  the  highest  clearance  rate  (34 
percent)  was  recorded  for  offenses  in  which  community  or 
public  structures  were  involved,  while  the  lowest  (10 
percent)  was  registered  for  motor  vehicles.

Persons  Arrested 

During  1984,  the  estimated  number  of  arrests  for  arson 
totaled  19,000.  Forty-three  percent  of  the  arrestees  were 
under  18  years  of  age  and  64  percent  were  under  25.  Males 
comprised  88  percent  of  all  arson  arrestees. 

Of  all  persons  arrested  for  this  offense  in  1984,  78  percent 
were  white,  21  percent  were  black,  and  the  remainder  were 
of  other  races.  Hispanics  comprised  8  percent  of  the 
arrestees. 

Trends  for  1983  versus  1984  show  arson  arrests  decreased 
3  percent  nationwide,  6  percent  in  the  rural  counties,  and  1 1 


percent  in  the  suburban  counties.  Law  enforcement  agencies 
in  the  Nation's  cities  reported  virtually  no  change  for  the  2- 
year  period. 

From  1983  to  1984  arrests  of  persons  under  the  age  of  18 
increased  7  percent,  but  adult  arrests  dropped  9  percent 
nationwide.  During  the  same  period,  male  arrests  for  arson 
were  down  2  percent  and  female  arrests  down  4  percent. 

The  1984  arson  arrest  total  for  all  ages  decreased  7 
percent  from  the  1980  level  but  was  up  1  percent  from  the 
1975  total. 


CRIME  INDEX  TABULATIONS 


Data  on  crime  in  the  United  States  as  a  whole;  geographic 
divisions;  individual  states;  Metropolitan  Statistical  Areas; 
cities,  towns,  and  counties;  and  college  and  university 
campuses  are  presented  in  this  Section's  tabular  portions. 
Although  the  total  number  of  actual  criminal  offenses 
occurring  is  unknown,  the  volume  of  crimes  reported  to  law 
enforcement  agencies  represents  an  indicator  of  criminal 
activity. 

Also  furnished  in  the  following  tables  are  national 
averages  for  the  value  of  property  stolen  in  connection  with 
Crime  Index  offenses;  further  breakdowns  by  type  for  the 
robbery,  burglary,  larceny-theft,  and  arson  classifications; 
and  data  on  the  type  and  value  of  property  stolen  and 
recovered. 

In  reviewing  the  tables  in  this  report,  it  must  be 
remembered  that  many  factors  can  cause  the  volume  and 
type  of  crime  to  vary  from  place  to  place.  Population,  one  of 
these  factors,  is  used  in  computing  crime  rates;  however,  all 
communities  are  affected  to  some  degree  by  seasonal  or 
transient  populations.  Since  counts  of  current,  permanent 


population  are  used  in  their  construction,  crime  rates  do  not 
account  for  short-term  population  variability.  A  discussion 
of  various  factors  contributing  to  the  amount  of  crime  in  a 
given  area  is  shown  on  page  v  of  this  publication. 

National  data  can  serve  as  a  guide  for  the  law 
enforcement  administrator  in  analyzing  the  local  crime 
count,  as  well  as  the  performance  of  the  jurisdiction's  law 
enforcement  agency.  The  analysis,  however,  should  not  end 
with  a  comparison  based  on  data  presented  in  this 
publication.  It  is  only  through  an  appraisal  of  local 
conditions  that  a  clear  picture  of  the  community  crime 
problem  or  the  effectiveness  of  the  law  enforcement 
operation  is  possible. 

Note 

The  collection  of  statistics  on  arson  as  a  Crime  Index 
offense  began  in  1979.  However.  1984  annual  figures  are  not 
available  for  inclusion  in  tables  presenting  statistics  for  the 
total  United  States.  Arson  totals  reported  by  individual  law 
enforcement  agencies  are  displayed  in  Tables  6  through  9. 
Two-year  arson  trends  are  shown  in  Tables  10  through  13.

Crime  Index  Total 

The  estimated  11.9  million  Crime  Index  offenses 
occurring  in  1984  represented  a  2-percent  decline  from 
1983.  Marking  the  third  consecutive  year  of  decline,  the 
1984  total  was  the  lowest  since  1978.  It  was  11  percent 
below  the  1980  level  but  5  percent  higher  than  in  1975. 

Overall  violent  crime  was  up  1  percent  in  1984  as 
compared  to  1983.  Among  the  individual  offenses,  murder 
and  robbery  declined,  3  and  4  percent,  respectively.  Forcible 
rape  rose  7  percent  and  aggravated  assault,  5  percent. 

Collectively,  the  number  of  property  crimes  in  1984  was 
down  2  percent  from  the  1983  volume.  Burglary  decreased  5 


percent  and  larceny-theft,  2  percent.  Motor  vehicle  theft 
showed  an  increase  of  2  percent. 

Considering  5-  and  10-year  timeframes,  the  1984  violent 
and  property  crime  totals  each  showed  declines  from  the 
1980  figures,  5  and  12  percent,  respectively.  Both  categories, 
however,  registered  increases  as  compared  to  1975.  Violent 
crime  was  up  22  percent  and  property  crime,  3  percent. 
National  estimates  of  volume  and  rate  per  100,000 
inhabitants  for  all  Crime  Index  offenses  covering  the  past 
decade  are  set  forth  in  Table  1,  "Index  of  Crime, 
United  States,  1975-1984."  Crime  rates  relate  the  incidence 
of  reported  crime  to  population.

SECTION  III 
CRIME  INDEX  OFFENSES  CLEARED 


Law  enforcement  agencies  clear  crimes  by  arrest,  or  in 
some  circumstances,  by  exceptional  means.  An  offense  is 
cleared  by  arrest  when  at  least  one  person  is  arrested, 
charged  with  the  commission  of  the  offense,  and  turned  over 
to  the  court  for  prosecution.  Several  crimes  may  be  cleared 
by  the  arrest  of  one  person,  while  the  arrest  of  many  persons 
may  clear  only  one  offense.  Clearances  by  exceptional 
means  are  recorded  in  instances  when  some  element  beyond 
law  enforcement  control  precludes  the  placing  of  formal 
charges  against  the  offender.  Examples  of  circumstances 
allowing  exceptional  clearances  are  the  death  of  the  offender 
(suicide,  justifiably  killed  by  police  or  private  citizen,  etc.); 
the  victim's  refusal  to  prosecute  after  the  offender  has  been 
identified;  or  the  denial  of  extradition  because  the  offender 
committed  another  crime  and  is  being  prosecuted  in  a 
different  jurisdiction.  In  all  exceptional  clearance  cases,  law 
enforcement  must  have  identified  the  offender,  have  enough 
evidence  to  support  arrest,  and  know  the  offender's  location. 

Twenty-one  percent  of  the  Crime  Index  offenses  reported 
in  1984  were  cleared  by  law  enforcement.  The  overall 
violent  crime  clearance  rate  was  47  percent.  Law 
enforcement  agencies  recorded  a  74-percent  clearance  rate 
for  murder,  54  percent  for  forcible  rape,  26  percent  for 
robbery,   and   61    percent  for  aggravated  assault.   Of  all 


property  crimes  reported,  18  percent  were  cleared.  Among 
the  individual  categories,  the  larceny-theft  clearance  rate 
was  20  percent.  For  motor  vehicle  theft,  it  was  15  percent, 
and  for  burglary,  14  percent.  Clearances  for  crimes  against 
persons  are  generally  higher  as  more  intense  investigative 
efforts  are  often  afforded  these  offenses  and  witnesses  are 
more  frequently  available  to  identify  the  perpetrators. 

For  arson,  the  eighth  Index  crime,  the  clearance  rate  was 
17  percent.  When  arson  was  considered  in  the  Modified 
Crime  Index  total,  the  overall  clearance  rate  remained  the 
same,  21   percent. 

Regionally,  the  highest  overall  Crime  Index  clearance 
rate  was  recorded  by  the  Southern  States  with  23  percent. 
Following  were  the  Western  States  with  22  percent  and  the 
Northeastern  and  the  Midwestern  States  with  20  percent 
each.  In  addition  to  registering  the  highest  Crime  Index 
clearance  rate,  the  Southern  States  also  registered  the  most 
successful  violent  and  property  crime  clearance  percentages, 
52  and  19  percent,  respectively. 

City  law  enforcement  agencies  recorded  clearances  for  21 
percent  of  the  Crime  Index  offenses  brought  to  their 
attention.  Those  in  rural  counties  showed  clearances  for  22 
percent  and  in  suburban  counties,  21  percent.

'Includes  exceptional  clearances. 

Clearances  Involving  Only  Persons  under  18  Years  of  Age 

One  means  of  measuring  the  involvement  of  juveniles  in 
crime  is  to  identify  the  number  of  crimes  in  which  they  are 
offenders.  Although  no  physical  arrest  may  be  made,  a 
clearance  by  arrest  can  be  recorded  when  the  offender  is  a 
person  under  18  years  of  age  and  is  cited  to  appear  in 
juvenile  court  or  before  other  juvenile  authorities.  Twenty 
percent  of  the  Crime  Index  offenses  cleared  during  1984 
involved  only  persons  under  the  age  of  18.  Persons  in  this 
same  age  group  accounted  for  10  percent  of  the  violent 
crime  clearances  and  23  percent  of  those  for  property 
crimes. 


The  percentage  of  juvenile  involvement  was  lowest  for 
murder  (5  percent)  and  highest  for  arson  (35  percent). 
Persons  in  the  under  18  age  category  accounted  for  27 
percent  of  the  1984  U.  S.  population. 

Regionally,  the  largest  percentage  of  involvement  by  the 
under  1 8  age  group  was  recorded  in  the  Midwest  where  they 
accounted  for  1  of  every  4  clearances.  Juveniles  were  the 
offenders  in  22  percent  of  the  clearances  in  the  Western 
States,  20  percent  of  those  in  the  Northeastern  States,  and 
16  percent  of  those  in  the  Southern  States.

SECTION  IV 
PERSONS  ARRESTED 


Arrests  are  primarily  an  indication  of  law  enforcement 
activity  as  it  relates  to  crime.  Although  arrest  practices, 
policies,  and  enforcement  emphases  vary  from  place  to  place 
and  even  within  a  community  from  time  to  time,  arrest  data 
provide  a  useful  indication  of  involvement  in  criminal  acts 
by  the  age,  sex,  race,  and  ethnic  origin  of  the  perpetrators. 
The  volume  of  arrests  for  certain  unlawful  conduct  such  as 
drunkenness,  disorderly  conduct,  vagrancy,  and  related 
violations  may  differ  among  agencies.  Arrests  for  robbery, 
burglary,  and  other  serious  crimes  are,  however,  more  likely 
to  be  the  result  of  uniform  and  consistent  practices 
throughout  all  jurisdictions.  Procedures  used  in  this 
Program  require  that  an  arrest  be  counted  on  each  separate 
occasion  a  person  is  taken  into  custody,  notified,  or  cited. 
Annual  arrest  figures  do  not  measure  the  number  of 
individuals  arrested  since  one  person  may  be  arrested 
several  times  during  the  year  for  the  same  or  different 
offenses. 

Law  enforcement  agencies  made  an  estimated  11.6 
million  arrests  nationwide  in  1984  for  all  criminal 
infractions  except  traffic  violations.  The  arrest  rate  was 
4,951  per  100,000  inhabitants  of  the  total  estimated  United 
States  population.  Cities  with  populations  over  250,000 
showed  the  highest  rate,  7,526  per  100,000.  Suburban 
counties  registered  3,866;  and  rural  counties  recorded  3,078 
per  100,000  people. 

Regionally,  the  highest  arrest  rate  was  in  the  Western 
States  with  5,680  per  100,000  inhabitants.  Following  were 
the  Southern  States  with  5,170,  the  Northeastern  States  with 
4,907,  and  the  Midwestern  States  with  3,955. 

Arrest  Trends 

Arrests  for  all  offenses  except  traffic  violations  showed 
virtually  no  change  in  1984  from  the  1983  volume.  Similar 
to  the  experience  for  all  ages,  adult  arrests  remained  at  the 
same  level  for  the  2-year  period,  while  those  of  persons 
under  age  18  increased  1  percent.  When  considering  only 
the  eight  Crime  Index  offenses  as  a  group,  a  2-percent 
decline  was  recorded  for  all  ages.  This  trend  held  for  both 
the  overall  adult  and  juvenile  age  categories.  Arrests  for  the 
Index's  violent  crimes  showed  no  change,  and  those  for 
property  crimes  were  down  3  percent. 

City  law  enforcement  agencies  reported  virtually  the  same 
number  of  arrests  for  all  offenses  in  1984  as  in  1983.  For  the 
same  period,  suburban  county  arrests  were  up  1  percent, 
while  rural  county  law  enforcement  agencies  recorded  a  1- 
percent  decline. 

For  the  5-year  period,  1980-1984,  total  arrests  were  up  1 1 
percent  in  volume.  Although  the  arrests  of  persons  under  18 
years  of  age  dropped  11  percent,  those  of  persons  18  and 


over  increased  17  percent.  Crime  Index  arrests  were  down  1 
percent  overall  and  17  percent  for  juveniles.  Conversely,  the 
number  of  adults  arrested  for  Index  crimes  was  up  8 
percent.  Total  violent  crime  arrests  rose  4  percent  over  the 
1980  total,  while  property  crime  arrests  were  down  3 
percent. 

Arrests  for  drug  abuse  violations  in  1984  were  up  6 
percent  over  the  1983  experience  and  31  percent  above  the 
1980  level.  The  types  of  drugs  involved  in  violations 
resulting  in  arrests  during  1984  are  shown  by  geographic 
region  in  the  accompanying  table.

Age 

Age  distribution  data  for  all  arrestees  nationwide  showed 
that  6  percent  were  under  the  age  of  15,  17  percent  were 
under  18,  32  percent  were  under  21,  and  51  percent  were 
under  25.  The  under  25  age  group  accounted  for  52  percent 
of  arrests  in  the  cities,  46  percent  of  those  in  the  suburban 
counties,  and  44  percent  of  those  in  the  rural  counties. 

Thirteen  percent  of  the  arrestees  for  Crime  Index  offenses 
were  under  the  age  of  15;  31  percent  were  under  the  age  of 
18;  47  percent  were  under  21;  and  63  percent,  under  25.  A 
further  examination  of  figures  on  arrestees  in  the  lower  age 
brackets  showed  that  persons  under  25  years  of  age 
comprised  51  percent  of  those  arrested  for  violent  crimes 
and  66  percent  of  those  arrested  for  property  crimes. 

Sex 

Outnumbering  women  arrestees  by  5  to  1,  males 
accounted  for  83  percent  of  all  arrests,  79  percent  of  those 
for  Index  crimes,  89  percent  of  those  for  violent  crimes,  and 


161 


77  percent  of  those  for  property  crimes.  As  shown  in  former 
years,  larceny-theft  was  the  crime  for  which  females  were 
most  often  arrested.  This  single  offense  accounted  for  80 
percent  of  arrests  of  women  for  Index  crimes  and  20  percent 
of  all  female  arrests. 

Two-year  trends  showed  virtually  no  change  in  the 
number  of  male  arrests  from  1983  to  1984.  Female  arrests 
were  up  1  percent  during  the  same  period. 

Considering  a  longer  timeframe,  arrests  of  males  rose  10 
percent  from  1980  to  1984,  and  female  arrests  were  up  18 
percent.  Although  the  number  of  adult  arrests  increased  for 
both  sexes,  arrests  of  females  under  age  1 8  fell  5  percent  and 
those  of  males  in  the  same  age  group  dropped  12  percent  for 
the  5-year  timespan.

Arrest  rates  are  a  measure  of  law  enforcement  activity  in

SECTION  V 
LAW  ENFORCEMENT  PERSONNEL 


Law  Enforcement  Employees 

As  of  October  31,  1984,  the  number  of  full-time  law 
enforcement  officers  averaged  2  for  every  1 ,000  inhabitants 
in  the  United  States.  Representing  a  population  of  225 
million,  11,912  city,  county,  and  state  poHce  agencies 
reported  employing  a  total  of  467,117  officers.  Including 
full-time  civilians,  the  total  law  enforcement  employee  force 
was  611,488  for  a  rate  of  2.7  per  1,000  inhabitants. 

Varying  demographic  and  other  jurisdictional 
characteristics  greatly  affect  the  requirements  for  law 
enforcement  service  from  one  locale  to  another.  For 
example,  the  needs  of  a  community  having  a  highly  mobile 
or  seasonal  population  may  be  very  different  from  those  of  a 
city  whose  population  is  relatively  stable.  Similarly,  a  small 
community  situated  between  two  large  cities  may  require  a 
greater  number  of  law  enforcement  personnel  than  a 
community  of  the  same  size  which  has  no  urban  centers 
nearby. 

The  functions  of  law  enforcement  are  also  significantly 
diverse  throughout  the  Nation.  In  certain  areas,  sheriffs' 
responsibilities  are  limited  almost  exclusively  to  civil 
functions  and/or  the  administration  of  the  county  jail 
facilities.  Likewise,  the  responsibilities  of  state  police  and 
highway  patrol  agencies  vary  from  one  jurisdiction  to 
another. 

In  view  of  these  differing  service  requirements  and 
responsibilities,  care  should  be  used  when  attempting  any 
comparison  of  law  enforcement  employee  rates.  The  rates 
presented  in  the  following  tables  represent  national 
averages;  they  should  be  viewed  as  guides  or  indicators,  not 
as  recommended  or  desirable  police  strengths.  Adequate 
manpower  for  a  specific  locale  can  be  determined  only  after 
careful  study  and  analysis  of  the  various  conditions  affecting 
service  requirements  in  that  jurisdiction. 

City  law  enforcement  employee  averages  in  1984  ranged 
from  2  per  1,000  inhabitants  in  those  with  populations  from 
25,000  to  49,999   to   3.4  for  those  with  populations  of 


250,000  or  more.  Rural  counties  averaged  3.2  full-time  law 
enforcement  employees  per  1,000  population,  while 
suburban  counties  averaged  2.9. 

Geographically,  the  highest  law  enforcement  employee 
rate  (3.2)  was  recorded  in  the  South  Atlantic  Division.  The 
fewest  number  of  employees  per  1,000  population  (2.2)  was 
reported  by  the  West  North  Central  Division. 

Sworn  Personnel 

Rates  based  solely  on  sworn  law  enforcement  personnel 
(excluding  civilians)  showed  the  national  average  for  all 
cities  was  2.1  officers  per  1,000  inhabitants.  By  population 
grouping,  the  lowest  average  rate  (1.6)  was  for  cities  with 
populations  of  25,000  to  49,999;  cities  250,000  or  more  in 
population  recorded  the  highest  rate,  2.7.  Suburban  county 
law  enforcement  agencies  averaged  2  officers  per  1,000 
population,  while  agencies  in  rural  counties  averaged  2.2. 

Males  comprised  94  percent  of  all  sworn  employees 
throughout  the  Nation,  as  well  as  in  the  cities  and  rural 
counties.  In  suburban  counties,  males  comprised  91  percent 
of  all  sworn  personnel. 

Civilian  Employees 

Nationally,  24  percent  of  all  law  enforcement  employees 
in  1984  were  civilians.  Civilians  comprised  30  percent  of  the 
rural  law  enforcement  strength.  In  suburban  counties,  they 
represented  29  percent;  and  in  cities,  20  percent. 

Law  Enforcement  OfHcers  Killed  and  Assaulted 

Seventy-two  law  enforcement  officers  were  feloniously 
slain  in  the  line  of  duty  during  1984.  That  annual  total  was 
lower  than  for  any  year  since  1968  when  records  show  64 
officers  were  slain.  The  highest  number  of  officer  killings 
was  registered  in  1973  when  134  officers  lost  their  lives. 

Extensive  data  on  line-of-duty  deaths  and  assaults  on  city, 
county,  state,  and  Federal  officers  can  be  found  in  the 
Uniform  Crime  Reporting  publication.  Law  Enforcement 
Officers  Killed  and  Assaulted.

SECTION  VI 

APPENDIX  I 

TABLE  METHODOLOGY 


Designed  to  assist  the  reader,  this  appendix  explains  the 
construction  of  many  tabular  presentations  in  the  book.  The 
following  key  refers  to  the  columnar  headings  used 
throughout  the  appendix. 

Key:  A)  Column  1  shows  the  table  numbers.  Included  are 
Tables  1  through  68,  Crime  in  the  United  States- 
1984. 

B)  Column  2  indicates  the  level  of  submission 
necessary  for  an  agency's  statistics  to  be  included 
in  a  table.  There  are  three  levels  of  participation: 

1.  Agencies  having  reported  data  for  all  12 
months  of  the  year. 

2.  Agencies  having  reported  data  for  at 
least  1  month  but  less  than  1 2  months  of 
the  year. 

3.  Nonreporting  agencies. 


The  tabulations  presented  in  the  publication 
employ  statistics  from  one  or  more  of  the  above- 
listed  participation  levels.  For  example,  Table  2 
includes  all  three  agency  reporting  levels,  but 
Table  14  presents  only  data  for  agencies  having 
reported  the  entire  year. 

C)  Column  3  explains  how  each  table  was 
constructed.  Data  adjustments,  if  any,  are 
discussed  along  with  various  definitions  of  data 
aggregation. 

D)  Column  4  contains  general  comments  regarding 
the  potential  use  and  misuse  of  the  statistics 
presented.

(3) 
Table  Construction 

The  1984  statistics  are  consistent  with  Table  2.  Pre- 
1984  crime  statistics  may  have  been  updated,  and 
hence,  may  not  be  consistent  with  prior  publi 
tions.  Crime  statistics  include  estimated  offense 
totals  for  agencies  submitting  less  than  12  month; 
of  offense  reports  for  each  year.  Population  statis 
tics  represent  July  1  provisional  estimations  for 
each  year  except  April  1,  1980.  The  offense  break 
downs  are  according  to  UCR  crime  definitions 
(App.  II).  Crime  volume  statistics  are  rounded  to 
the  nearest  10  for  violent  crime  and  the  nearest  100 
for  property  crime.  Percent  changes  are  computed 
prior  to  rounding. 

Statistics  are  aggregated  from  individual  state  statis- 
tics as  shown  in  Table  5.  Crime  statistics  include 
estimated  offense  totals  for  agencies  submitting  less 
than  12  months  of  offense  reports.  Population 
statistics  represent  July  1,  1984,  Bureau  of  the 
Census  provisional  estimates.  The  tabular  break- 
downs are  in  accordance  with  UCR  crime  defini- 
tions (App.  II)  and  population  classifications  (App. 
Ill), 

Regional  offense  distributions  are  computed  from 
volume  figures  as  shown  in  Table  4.  Population 
distributions  are  based  on  July  1,  1984,  Bureau  of 
the  Census  provisional  estimates. 

The  1984  statistics  are  aggregated  from  individual 
state  statistics  as  shown  in  Table  5.  Crime  statistics 
include  estimated  offense  totals  for  agencies  sub- 
mitting less  than  12  months  of  offense  reports  for 
1983  and  1984.  Population  statistics  represent 
July  1  provisional  estimates  for  1983  and  1984.  The 
offense  breakdowns  are  according  to  UCR  crime 
definitions  (App.  II). 

Crime  statistics  mclude  estimated  offense  totals  for 
agencies  submitting  less  than  12  months  of  offense 
reports.  Population  statistics  represent  July  1, 
1984,  Bureau  of  the  Census  provisional  estimates. 
Statistics  under  the  heading  "Area  Actually  Re- 
porting" represent  reported  offense  totals  for  agen- 
cies submitting  12  months  of  offense  reports  and 
estimated  totals  for  agencies  submitting  less  than 
12  but  more  than  2  months  of  offense  reports.  The 
statistics  under  the  heading  "Estimated  Totals" 
represent  the  above  plus  estimated  offense  totals  for 
agencies  having  less  than  3  months  of  offense 
reports.  The  offense  breakdowns  are  according  to 
UCR  definitions  (App.  II). 

"Cities  and  Towns"  are  defined  to  be  agencies  in 
Population  Groups  I  through  V  (App.  III).  The 
populations  are  July  1.  1984.  estimates  for  each 
agency. 

The  1983  student  enrollment  figures,  which  are  pro- 
vided by  the  U.S.  Department  of  Education,  are  the 

most  recent  available. 


"Suburban  Counties"  are  defined  as  the  areas  covered 
by  noncity  agencies  within  an  MSA  (App.  Ill), 
Population  estimates  of  suburban  counties  are  as  of 
July  1,  1984. 

"Rural  Counties"  are  those  outside  MSAs  and  not 
covered  by  city  police  agencies  (App.  III).  Popula- 
tion classifications  of  rural  counties  are  based  on 
July   1.  1984.  estimates  for  individual  agencies.

The  1984  crime  trend  statistics  are  2-year  compari- 
sons based  on  1984  reported  crime  activity.  Only 
common  reported  months  for  individual  agencies 
are  included  in  1984  trend  calculations.  Popula 
tions  represent  July  1,  1984,  estimates  for  individu 
al  agencies.  The  tabular  breakdowns  are  according 
to  UCR  crime  definitions  (App.  II)  and  population 
classifications  (App.  III).  Note  that  "Suburban  and 
Nonsuburban  Cities"  are  all  municipal  agencies 
other  than  central  cities  in  MSAs 

The  1984  crime  rates  are  the  ratios  of  the  aggregated 
1984  crime  volumes  and  the  aggregated  1984 
populations  of  the  contributing  agencies.  Popula- 
tion statistics  represent  July  1,  1984,  estimates  for 
individual  agencies.  The  tabular  breakdowns  are 
according  to  UCR  crime  definitions  (App.  II)  and 
population  classifications  (App.  Ill),  Note  that 
"Suburban  and  Nonsuburban  Cities"  are  all  mu- 
nicipal agencies  other  than  central  cities  in  MSAs, 

Offense  total  and  value  lost  total  are  computed  for  all 
Index  offense  categones  other  than  aggravated 
assault.  Percent  distribution  is  denved  based  on 
offense  total  with  each  Index  offense  Trend  statis- 
tics are  derived  based  on  agencies  with  at  least  6 
common  months  complete  for  1983  and   1984 

The  1984  clearance  rates  are  based  on  offense  and 
clearance  volume  totals  of  the  contributing  agen- 
cies for  1984.  Population  statistics  represent  July  1 
estimates  for  individual  agencies.  The  tabular 
breakdowns  are  according  to  UCR  crime  defini- 
tions (App.  II)  and  population  classifications  (App, 
III). 

The  arrest  totals  presented  are  national  estimates 
based  on  the  arrest  statistics  of  all  law  enforcement 
agencies  in  the  UCR  Program  (including  those 
submitting  less  than  12  months).  The  "Total 
Estimated  Arrests"  statistic  is  the  sum  of  est 
arrest  volumes  for  each  of  the  29  offenses.  Each 
individual  arrest  total  is  the  sum  of  the  estimated 
volumes  within  each  of  the  eight  population  groups 
(App.  Ill)  Each  group's  estimate  is  the  reported 
volume  (as  shown  in  Table  25)  divided  by  the 
percent  of  total  group  population  reporting  (ac 
cording  to  July   1,   1984,  estimates). 

The  1984  arrest  rates  are  the  ratios,  per  1(K),(XX) 
inhabitants,  of  the  aggregated  1984  reported  arrest 
statistics  and  population.  The  population  statistics 
represent  the  July  1.  1984,  estimates  for  individual 
agencies.  The  tabular  breakdowns  are  according  to 
UCR  crime  definitions  (App.  II)  and  jropulation 
classifications  (App.  Ill) 

The  arrest  trends  are  the  percentage  differences 
between  1975  and  1984  arrest  vol 
from  all  common  agencies.  Population  statistics 
represent  July   1,   1984,  estimates

APPENDIX  II 
OFFENSES  IN  UNIFORM  CRIME  REPORTING 


Offenses  in  Uniform  Crime  Reporting  are  divided  into 
two  groupings,  Part  I  and  Part  II.  Information  on  the 
number  of  Part  I  offenses  known  to  law  enforcement,  the 
number  cleared  by  arrest  or  exceptional  means,  and  the

APPENDIX  III 
UNIFORM  CRIME  REPORTING  AREA  DEFINITIONS 


Community  Types 

Uniform  Crime  Reporting  data  are  often  presented  using 
three  community-type  aggregations.  These  are  MetropoHtan 
Statistical  Areas  (MSAs),  other  cities,  and  rural  counties. 

The  MSA  concept  was  developed  to  facilitate  the  analysis 
and  dissemination  of  uniform  statistical  information  on 
metropolitan  areas.  The  primary  objective  in  establishing 
standard  definitions  of  these  areas  was  to  make  it  possible 
for  Federal  agencies  to  utilize  the  same  boundaries  when 
publishing  statistical  data.  Each  MSA  is  an  integrated 
economic  and  social  unit  with  a  recognized  large  population 
nucleus.  Detailed  criteria  followed  in  establishing  and 
defining  MSAs  can  be  found  in  the  U.  S.  Department  of 
Commerce  publication,  Metropolitan  Statistical  Areas,  1983 
edition. 

An  MSA  includes  a  central  city  of  at  least  50,000 
population  or  an  urbanized  area  of  at  least  50,000  with  a 
total  metropolitan  population  of  at  least  100,000.  Also 
included  are  the  county  containing  the  central  city  and 
contiguous  counties  having  strong  economic  and  social 
relationships  to  the  central  city  and  county.  Counties  in 
MSAs  are  designated  suburban  in  UCR.  An  MSA  may 
cross  state  lines. 

New  England  MSAs  are  composed  of  cities  and  towns 
instead  of  counties.  In  this  publication's  tabular 
presentations.  New  England  cities  and  towns  are  assigned  to 
the  proper  MSA.  However,  some  counties  have  both 
suburban  and  rural  portions.  Data  for  state  police  and 
sheriffs  in  those  jurisdictions  are  included  in  statistics  for 
the  rural  area. 

MSAs  made  up  approximately  76  percent  of  the  total 
United  States  population  in  1984.  Some  presentations  in  this 
book  refer  to  "suburban  area."  A  suburban  area  includes 
cities  with  less  than  50,000  inhabitants  in  addition  to 
counties  (unincorporated  areas)  within  the  MSA.  The 
central  cities  are,  of  course,  excluded. 

"Other  cities,"  most  of  which  are  incorporated,  are  those 
outside  MSAs.  They  comprised  10  percent  of  the  1984 
population  of  the  United  States. 

Rural  counties,  Hke  "other  cities,"  are  outside  MSAs. 
Covering  areas  not  under  the  jurisdiction  of  city  police 
departments,  rural  county  law  enforcement  agencies  offered 
service  to  14  percent  of  the  national  population  in  1984. 

The  following  diagram  illustrates  the  aforementioned 
discussion  of  the  community  types.

The  major  source  of  UCR  data  is  the  individual  law 
enforcement  agency.  The  number  of  agencies  included  in 
each  population  group  will  vary  slightly  from  year  to  year 
due  to  population  growth,  geopolitical  consolidation, 
municipal  incorporation,  etc.  Population  figures  for 
individual  jurisdictions  are  estimated  by  the  UCR  Program 
in  non-census  years.  To  obtain  the  1984  figures,  for 
example,  the  1982  to  1984  growth  rate  of  each  state  was 
applied  to  each  jurisdiction  within  the  state.  The  1982  base 
figures  were  Bureau  of  the  Census  city  and  county 
estimates. 

The  following  table  shows  the  number  of  UCR 
contributing  agencies  within  each  population  group  for 
1984.
